Children under the age of 12 who are classed as at-risk will be vaccinated, according to the Health Secretary.
Sajid Javid made the announcement during a Downing Street press conference where he gave further details on the government's Covid-19 plan as Plan B rules begin to be scrapped.
He said the JCVI advises: "that we should vaccinate under-12s that are at risk and that is exactly what we plan to do, and we will start that this month, but they are keeping that under review to see if we should expand that more broadly to everyone in that cohort”.
